  • The Cook County Board in the Preckwinkle Era
    The Cook County Board in the Preckwinkle Era Cook County Board of Commissioners Report December 16, 2010 – April 16, 2014 Authored By: Melissa Mouritsen Zmuda Dick Simpson Kelly McKevitt Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science June 3, 2014 1 In November of 2010, Cook County elected its first female Board of Commissioners President. Toni Preckwinkle, then an alderman and former school teacher, promised to bring reform to the county government and restore its fiscal health after four of the most tumultuous years it had seen in decades. Preckwinkle, who is often considered the most formidable possible opponent to Mayor Rahm Emanuel, has fulfilled her promises. She has rolled back the hated county sales tax, cut down to size a bloated county government, and fought the high level of corruption in the government she inherited. Most of all, she has seized and maintained control of the previous fractured and rebellious 17-member Cook County Board. By the time Preckwinkle assumed office, Cook County, the second largest county in the nation, had the highest sales tax and the largest county jail population in the nation, a bloated payroll, a serious pension dilemma, and a high level of corruption. While there is still much to do, county government is considerably improved after her first three and a half years in office. The Board of Commissioners has consistently supported her initiatives and she has passed all three of her budgets with never more than a single dissenting vote. Preckwinkle took over a board that in the previous four years under former President Todd Stroger had a level of conflict approaching that of the “Council Wars” period of the Chicago City Council.
